You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Kylian Mbappé put the world on notice Tuesday, scoring twice to become France's all-time leading goalscorer and surpass Lionel Messi on the World Cup scoring charts, all in a single three to one Group I victory over Senegal. The kid is rewriting history in real time.
Shifting to the NFL, George Pickens ended his holdout and showed up to Dallas Cowboys mandatory minicamp Tuesday, telling reporters he's ready to suit up in two thousand twenty six under the franchise tag. After skipping the voluntary portion of the offseason program, the talented wide receiver appears focused, and a Cowboys offense that went seven and nine and one last year desperately needs him locked in.
And we close with a moment worth pausing for — Lawrence Tanter, the voice of the Los Angeles Lakers for forty three seasons, is stepping away from the microphone. The Lakers announced Tuesday that Tanter will move into a Special Advisor role, closing the chapter on one of the longest tenures in arena announcing history. Forty three years of starting lineups, championship moments, and that unmistakable voice. An era ends.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
